# Code

|
> NOTE: As of 2021, I have no interest in the (vs)code text editor. Although the out-of-the-box features are nice and all, trying to emulate vim-like functionality was more pain than it was worth (even after using [vscode-neovim][vscode-neovim]). Additionally, the battery drain is unreal compared to running an equivalent [neovim](/neovim) experience.

> If you want (vs)code to honor [pywal](/wal) color schemes, use [vscode-wal][vscode-wal].
|
|
|
|
[Code][code] is an open source build of [a popular][vscode] GUI text editor.
|
|
|
|
## Use Cases
|
|
|
|
Code can be used to:
|
|
|
|
- Navigate graphical file trees entirely with the mouse
|
|
- Provide an editor for non-vim users as needed
|
|
- Perform a myriad of common command line operations through a point-click GUI
|
|
|
|
You should not use Code if:
|
|
|
|
- You want to learn how compilers, git, find, grep, and other software work
|
|
- You want to learn [vim](/vim), the standard text editor
